Putrifiers II can, essentially, act as an introduction to Thee Oh Sees.
Dig the chugging bass, bleary falsetto, and simplistic “ba ba ba” chorus
of “Flood’s New Light”? Or do you prefer the pitch-perfect Velvet
Underground single-chord swirls and violin icicles of “So Nice”? Perhaps
the droning spook and rifftastic glory of “Lupine Dominus”? Take your
pick, and you’ll be able to find some point in Thee Oh Sees’ catalog
that’ll tickle your fancy. The problem of that sort of multi-faceted
skill is that it detracts from the spine of the album and leads
listeners elsewhere rather than inwards. A greatest hits album could do
that just as easily. There’s nothing on Putrifiers II quite as brash as
their last disc (or the crushing live performances thereof), and nothing
quite as woodsy as the saw-wobbling days of Thee Hounds of Foggy
Notion, but this isn’t a band about presenting a single digestible
sound. This album encapsulates the shark-like nature of Dwyer’s
songwriting. It’s fun and challenging to try to keep up with him, to
explore the myriad little experiences he has in store for you, knowing
all along that there’s going to be another bunch together any day now.
In this case, Thee Oh Sees have repeated that challenge in a single
album. Every track presents a new side of the band in quick succession,
like pushing a magic Scan button on a radio and finding a paradoxically
coherent choppiness. (Read More: http://consequenceofsound.net)

"An exceptional piece of psychedelic garage rock that never stays in the same place yet manages to still feel consistent as a whole, making this album a true standout amongst Thee Oh Sees' vast discography" (www.noripcord.com)
